This computer is junk. You have to waste more money trying to dispose of the parts. It’s not fast enough for basic web browsing. Most $200 laptop you can get on ebay will run raps around this.
Though my first post is referring to company recycling, there’s usually a handful of places to take full computer towers, monitors, and other electronics to recycle for free no matter where you live (in the U.S. at least). Just gotta put int he effort into looking online.
Hell, the recycling company we use for all our old IT equipment at work gives me back scrap material worth for picking up. We don’t have to pay them a dime unless we’re getting secure data destruction done.
But yeah, these are 7 or 8 year old machines and the components probably will not last much longer, “refurbished” or not. Knowing these systems, most probably had blown capacitors on the motherboard and a handful more are ready to pop.
